Here is a theory about the Blind Skull in Halo 3 that might disturb you. Actually it concerns the three skulls I mention on the title, the Assassin Skull, the Blind Skull, an the Unknown Skull, but it mainly concerns the middle one.

Some time ago, I was slacking on Halopedia searching board to board conversations and I found a conversation between two users (don't remember who) who were talking about a "hidden", might I say, Halo 3 skull, named Assassin Skull. An incredible link was provided by the first user to the second that lead to an image of the mainmenu.map file of Halo 3. On the image, skulls, and a brief description (clues) of the level they could be found. They all (the clues) start with the phrase "interred where..." and a two or three-word clue follows. But another clue, that had nothing to do with the text, is that the skulls were placed in an order that went:

Gold Skulls

Level

Silver Skulls

Level

If my memory doesn't trick me, the Unknown Skull was not mentioned, but the Blind Skull surely was.

You will now wonder: why doesn't that bitch JEA13 give out the link so we can solve this? Ok, here is the link. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (actually if your browser allows you to see the page tell me so on the comments)! But: issue:

MOST IMPORTANT

The Assassin Skull was after the Mythic Skull and before the Blind Skull.

Clue for the Assassin skull is "interred where heroes fall"

MOST IMPORTANT

These suggest that it is:

On Halo

On Arrival

On Sierra 117

Other Clues and Facts:

The Assassin Skull can't be a gold skull since there is not an achievement on it. So all candidate levels on category gold skulls are stricken out.

On Halo

On Arrival

On Sierra 117

Me and Odysseas did search Halo for any possibilities and we found nothing. I searched the whole warthog run edges on theater mode but nothing. So its stricken out for sure.

Interred where heroes fall could mean Arrival cause Master Chief and Cortana, who are indeed heroes, fall from the Dreadnought. Ya srsly! So Arrival fits. I tried the moment where that Marine checks the Master Chief. On his pad you can see MC's skull. I thought this could be the Assassin Skull, but nothing.

On Halo

On Arrival

On Sierra 117

So now only Sierra 117 remains. Surely it is not there, as it already has a silver and a gold skull, so nothing. But, after I reopened the link some days ago, and after some revisions on the Halo 3 Skulls page, I found out (remembered) that the Blind Skull's clue is "interred deep inside hertomb."...

So, believe it or not, the Unknown Skull is not an oversight, but the Unknown Skull is the Blind Skull. So now we have a silver skull gap free on Sierra 117. It is the Assassin Skull with "interred where heroes fall". See why this isn't nonsense?!

You might as well now say: The matching JEA13 did does not concur with what he said above:

Gold Skulls

Level

Silver Skulls

Level

JEA13 says: But this is why we see what we see on Halo 3 now', my young apprentice. They made the changes very fast and without any attention. So a lot of oversights happened.

Halo 3 now: Blind Skull on Cortana, Blind Skull on Sierra 117. See how messed up Halo 3 is? Bungie put the Blind Skull name on the Assassin, thus deleting the Assassin Skull effects along with the skull, left original Blind Skull unnamed, but effect remained on the original as well. PAY ATTENTION HERE: It's like copy-paste, but with skulls being the moving objects, not what moves objects. Hackers hack the game level by level, so they found the Blind Skull clone on Sierra 117 first. But original Blind Skull is on Cortana.
